Verse 1

Frost in her stare when the sun won't rise

Every smile she gave got sold for a price

Mama in the kitchen crying over bills

Daddy walked out when the rent stood still

So she built her walls from the bricks they threw

Trust is a door that she never knew

Pre-Chorus

And I ain't mad at her

Frozen hearts got reasons

I just trace the scars

And read the seasons

Chorus

She's heartless for a reason

Nah she ain't cold just peeling

Layer by layer she's stealing

Space to breathe when the world keeps kneeling

She's heartless for a reason

(Yeah yeah)

Heartless for a reason

Verse 2

Boys in the past left her standing in rain

Promised her the moon then they took the lane

Now she moves in silence moves in calculated grace

Ain't nobody touching what she can't replace

Grew up fast in a slow burn town

Where the kindest words drag you under down

Pre-Chorus

And I ain't mad at her

Frozen hearts got reasons

I just trace the scars

And read the seasons

Chorus

She's heartless for a reason

Nah she ain't cold just peeling

Layer by layer she's stealing

Space to breathe when the world keeps kneeling

She's heartless for a reason

(Yeah yeah)

Heartless for a reason

Bridge

Break a soul once and it learns to armor

Stone on the outside keeps the fires calmer

I see the cracks when she thinks I'm gone

A river that froze still carries on

Chorus

She's heartless for a reason

Nah she ain't cold just peeling

Layer by layer she's stealing

Space to breathe when the world keeps kneeling

She's heartless for a reason

(Yeah yeah)

Heartless for a reason

Outro

Frozen but the river still runs

Frozen but the river still runs

Yeah
